BobBilly: Assuming we manage to not wipe ourselves out in the coming decades (or centuries) and come to the point of entering a technological singularity, what decision would you take, would you participate or choose not to?
Would you be willing to artifically augment your mind, or perhaps even 'upload' it entirely to the point of abandoning mortality as we currently know it, or would you continue as you are, perhaps out of fear, perhaps for reasons of faith, or perhaps simply because you would be happy and content to continue living as you are ?

Interface? Absolutely! I am of course assuming that we could access and utilize the entire brain unlike now, multi tasking on a truly thrilling scale!

I'm a simple, old fashioned woman at heart, so it's very unlikely I'd be interested

Very interesting question. Life is about living so death is a part of life. If you take away death, life will no longer have a meaning. Technology is already making our lives dull and uneventful.
I think I rather burn fast and bright and go out with a bang.

heh,
I still don't even have a cell phone.
uploading my brain is a concept I'll be able to embrace 25 years after it's old news.

Imagine uploading yourself and then getting the message asking if you wish to Restore System!
The US could use restore system to forget about the Bush years!

Lol at the MS comments Looks like it's pretty much 50/50 then. I think I'd give it a lash myself so long as I knew one of my chancer mates wouldn't try upload me into a toaster or one of those fancy japanese sprinkler toilets.
